What I love about this place is the consistency. The coffee is always good, not sometimes hot and sometimes cold like with a lot of other places. There's always a good vibe too with very friendly staff and a cosy ambiance. 10 out of 10!

Dublin has this weird thing where almost every terrace in the city is in the shade. And when you only get about 4 minutes of sunshine a year this unfortunate dispersion of outdoor tables is an absolute crime. It's why you see people sitting on the footpath outside the International and why people go to The Church. The Metro's food isn't good. And the coffee isn't great. But it does have a whole rake of tables that get the whatever is the nicest bit of weather going on any given day. It's also charming to walk past on a wander down South William St and there's a pretty good chance someone your know will be hanging out there. • • •
